At AudioCulture Iwi Waiata, we launched a major collection: The Māori Music Collection Ngā Puoro Arotini. The Māori Music Collection Ngā Puoro Arotini is a celebration by AudioCulture Iwi Waiata of Aotearoa’s rich history of waiata and puoro from all over the whenua. The collection spans the early 20th century to the 2020s, from early jazz to rock ’n’ roll, pop, reggae and hip hop. Included are profiles of digital-era innovators, artists who revived traditional taonga puoro, and all genres and eras in-between. Like AudioCulture Iwi Waiata itself, The Māori Music Collection is a work in progress. More artists will be added as time goes on.

Ia rā (every day) we shared the story of a musician who has done important mahi to increase the use of te reo in music. Artists we featured included Dalvanius, Ria Hall, Rob Ruha, Moana Maniapoto, Hinewehi Mohi, Hirini Melbourne – and a very cool story about the "Māori strum", which is prominent in Marlon Williams' new album 'My Boy'.
